• At Daily Science Fiction: "Memories of Mirrored Worlds" by Barbara A. Barnett. Fantasy. "The voice had no source that Alison Marie could find, for the people
around her did not talk of magical realms; they did not speak with the
cadence of a butterfly's flight. They filled the funeral parlor with
floral-scented death and spoke of memories and such an unfortunate
accident for one so young."

• At HiLobrow: "The Man with Six Senses - Part 1" by Muriel Jaeger. Science Fiction. (1927). "When Hilda, a beautiful young member of England’s cynical postwar
generation, meets Michael, a hapless mutant capable of perceiving the
molecular composition of objects and the ever-shifting patterns of
electromagnetic fields, she becomes his apostle."

• At Tor.com: "Wave of Infection" by Jason Hough. "The aircraft rested in a windswept field a few hundred meters up from
the beach. Her crew, a pilot and co-pilot, sat nearby. Gulls wheeled
overhead, their occasional calls as lazy as the Mediterranean whitecaps
stretching north as far as Skyler could see."

• At Escape Pod: "Zebulon Vance Sings the Alphabet Songs of Love" by Merrie Haskell. Science Fiction. "Today, Robot!Hamlet is afire with Edwin Booth’s mad vigor, and runs his improv algorithms at full throttle; he kisses me dreamily, and rips my bodice in a way that would never have been allowed in Victorian America. The FACfans don’t look hyperpleased about this; it tarnishes their precious authenticity"

• At The Fantastic Worlds of Edgar Rice Burroughs: "Episode 05 - The People That Time Forgot" "Tom Billings has been captured by a tribe of Band-Lu. He has been taken through caverns and caves deep into the cliffs, where he is tied and left to await the next day – and the “dance of death”. In the darkness, he hears the sound of padded feet approaching him"

• At PodCastle: "The Phoenix on the Sword, featuring Conan the Barbarian" by Robert E. Howard. Fantasy.
"The room was large and ornate, with rich tapestries on the
polished-panelled walls, deep rugs on the ivory floor, and with the
lofty ceiling adorned with intricate carvings and silver scrollwork.
Behind an ivory, gold-inlaid writing-table sat a man whose broad
shoulders and sun-browned skin seemed out of place among those luxuriant
surroundings. He seemed more a part of the sun and winds and high
places of the outlands."

“The Scratch of an Old Record” by Cate Gardner
“Breathe My Name” by Christopher Golden "A group of miners are trapped underground; as the time passes and they
start to lose their strength, one of them recalls an old bedtime story
his father used to tell him." - Horror World.
